summary

SREIN-1657 asks Cloud Engineering to identify the correct sponsor for the "outgoing" workgroup, since the current sponsor (htahsildoost@mozilla.com) doesn't reflect real ownership — Cloud Engineering only provides the underlying MozCloud platform, not the application itself. The ticket has no comments and is still in Backlog. Evidence in the ticket strongly points to Addons/AMO as the actual owning team (deploy target slack_channel: addons-production, app repo mozilla-services/outgoing, sole developer wezhou@mozilla.com is also in addons-admins for the amo workgroup). The reporter suggests starting with smarshall@mozilla.com, who recently became sponsor of the amo workgroup (SREIN-1541), and confirming with AMO managers fjoseph@mozilla.com / scaraveo@mozilla.com. The reporter also flags that current managers bvandenberk@mozilla.com and phammer@mozilla.com should be reviewed for continued relevance. I could not fetch the linked Confluence "Workgroups Ownership Model" page (blocked by policy: resource not in run subject), so I relied solely on the Jira description for role definitions and context.

findings

• Ticket is an ownership/metadata correction task, not a technical incident — it requires a human decision (confirmation from stakeholders) before any config change.
• Strong circumstantial evidence that 'outgoing' is functionally owned by the Addons/AMO team, not Cloud Engineering.
• A concrete, previously-used precedent exists for resolving this exact type of sponsor question: SREIN-1541 established smarshall@mozilla.com as sponsor of the related amo workgroup.
• Secondary open question bundled into this ticket: current group managers (bvandenberk@mozilla.com, phammer@mozilla.com) may also be stale and should be reviewed alongside the sponsor.
• Ticket links back to the original workgroup creation ticket for full history/context.
• Unable to verify the formal role definitions from the linked Confluence 'Workgroups Ownership Model' page due to a policy/access restriction in this run; recommendations below rely on the ticket's own description of roles.

proposed actions

Triage: This looks like a straightforward ownership-correction task rather than a Cloud Engineering-owned technical issue — the evidence (ArgoCD tenant slack_channel: addons-production, app repo mozilla-services/outgoing, sole developer wezhou@mozilla.com also in amo's addons-admins) supports the ticket's own hypothesis that 'outgoing' belongs to Addons/AMO, not to us.

Recommended next steps:
1. Reach out to smarshall@mozilla.com (current amo workgroup sponsor per SREIN-1541) to confirm whether he should also sponsor 'outgoing', or identify who should.
2. Loop in AMO managers fjoseph@mozilla.com and scaraveo@mozilla.com to corroborate ownership and get manager recommendations for the workgroup.
3. At the same time, ask the AMO team to confirm whether bvandenberk@mozilla.com and phammer@mozilla.com should remain as managers, or be replaced/updated.
4. Once confirmed, update google-workspace-management/tf/workgroups/outgoing.yaml (sponsor + managers) and reference this ticket (SREIN-1657) in the commit/metadata per the Workgroups Ownership Model doc.

Note: I could not access the linked Confluence 'Workgroups Ownership Model' page in this pass to double-check role definitions — worth a manual look before finalizing the metadata update. No blocking issues found; this can move from Backlog to In Progress once an owner is assigned to do the outreach.

Ask:  confirm the correct sponsor and appropriate group managers, then update the workgroup metadata and reference this ticket in it. Note the current managers (bvandenberk, phammer) should be reviewed at the same time. Related: https://mozilla-hub.atlassian.net/browse/SVCSE-706 (original workgroup ticket)",
